Thank you everyone for all the help and suggestions. I took it to the shop that repainted my hood just to see what they have to say. They said of course the proper way to do it would be to sand the area, paint that small area, and clear coat the hood again. They said about $350. I said...

Very annoyed because I just had my hood repainted 2 months ago and I put SunTek Ultra on 1 month ago. This rock Chip is HUGE. I don’t even know if it’s a rock that caused it because it’s so large. It’s probably about slightly larger than half a quarter- imagine a quarter cut in half. How...

Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic -WASH- (Experience) I recently applied two layers the the TW hybrid Ceramic Spray Coating, and I must say- I am extremely impressed with it. The coating beads water like crazy- pretty much comparable/similar to the cQuartz ceramic coating I previously had. In...

This is a very well written breakdown of the differences and similarities of all the products I listed. I think you just about cleared everything up for me. I really appreciate this post as it provides very helpful information!

Can someone provide their input on the Turtle Wax lineup? I need a little clarification moving forward. I’ve used a good amount of paint protection products in the past. Coming from CG Hydroslick, cQuartz, Meg’s Hybrid Ceramic Wax, and a few others. But I am looking to try out the Turtle...

Yes tint film. I’m assuming the same film used to tint windows. It’s not hard plastic covers that are made for some cars like mustangs. I don’t want to remove the tint, just restore it if possible.

Have you ever tried using that on any sort of tint film? Or know anyone that has? Just wondering where the basis/idea comes from.

So I have had my tail lights tinted for about 3-4 years now, maybe more. The tint on them has become dull/faded in a majority of the area. It looks like it has a matte finish on it now. I was wondering if there is anything I can do besides replacing the tint to restore its "shine" or reduce...

Hi Mike, As of today (Wednesday 07/22/20), paint has been on the hood for 6 days- tomorrow (Thursday 07/23/20) will be one week. I still would like to make it up to Stuart, but if I cannot get out of work during these times- I may do this myself-- the hospital can be demanding during these...

The hood was not coated after. Hood was just repainted and left at that- it is bare right now. I just have to wait 30 days before applying anything. In regard to the M105, I'm not sure if I need something so aggressive. I am not sure how much clear coat there is as I have corrected this car...

Mike has reached out to me and I have reached out to him, but as for now, we have no exact date as my hood was just repainted and will need 30 days before anything is put onto it. Also, I work in a hospital so my schedule is not very easy to go up there on a Tuesday. I still want to, but need...

Hello, To start, I have a 2012 Civic Si coupe in black. I have always taken good care of it for the ~7 years I have had it. Back in March of this year, I put on a ceramic coating myself. I used cQuartz TiO2. To make a long story short, I did not wipe to the oils off from the correction...

Yes that is my thread. I was ignorantly unaware that removing the oils was such a crucial step, and I too feel like it coming back to ruin me now :( :)

Really hoping I can get the experience to do this!

I love the idea! I'll PM you

Tell me about it. So tired of people down here in South Florida being idiots. Over on the west coast of FL- Naples, Ft. Myers, etc.-- no one wears a mask. Literally no one.

I remember that too. But last I remember, his shop/store was not taking public visits at the moment :(

South Florida. Parkland Specifically.

To share my results, it did not go well. Here was my process: 1) Washed my car with Reset 2) Dried with leaf blower 3) Sprayed IronX generously to cover each panel 4) Let it sit for about 2 min 5) Agitate/smear with damp microfiber mitt very lightly 6) Hose off 7) Wash again with Reset 8)...

Thank you so much everyone for the advice and guidance! My IronX and Spotless will be coming in the mail later today. Hopefully I’ll have time to do everything and it doesn’t get delivered too late. As for the IronX, I think I’ll start by doing one panel at a time to see how it reacts in...
